Trakr Update: 18th March 2008
Since my last update I have taken a break from the flash stuff and decided to work on getting the core site fully functioning, so I can get a good user base for user testing. The following items are now in place
- Invite Friends - Users can now invite their friends to the web site with a personalized e-mail message.
- Friends Search - Users can search for users on Trakr in order to add them to their friends list.
- Automatic Updating - User's lifestreams are now automatically updated. This has probably taken up the most time of the recent additions due to the things I had to consider, e.g. API usage limitations and creating a scalable solutions for dealing with more users without sacrificing time between updates.
I plan to finish off the friends system over Easter and add a couple more sources whilst continuing to work on the Flash.
